My Little Sapling

My little sapling,

So, small and upright.

It didn’t take a year or so

To become of two feet height.

It at first had difficulty though,

To come up and sprout.

But it fought

And came out.

Then the Amphan came about,

Killing 83.

My plant was also not left,

To set out free.

It is not so easy,

To exterminate my sapling.

Whatever the situation is,

I’ll always be protecting.

Though, it couldn’t be called a sapling now;

It’s now a shrub.

Let’s finish our discussion here,

Cause, I’ve to water it up!
